I don't think it will quite take 20 years.. and I am not going to dispute the wonderful work of all the superior growers out there. All I am saying is that everyone said the same thing about Flourescent technology...doesn't produce enough light output, never match up to HID. What High Times proved is that LED is more "efficient" key word being efficient, not necessarily the best option for growing an entire room. But the LED technology serves a good purpose, it targets what the plants use, rather than burning up a bunch of power and producing a bunch of useless heat.
Not saying any light method is better than the other. It all depends on your goals. If you are an environmentally conscious grower or working with a solar setup and concerned about how much power you are using then LED is a pro. If you do not care about these things and just wanna put 5 1000watt HPS in a big room and blast light everywhere then that is your goal. All I am saying is that these things can't be garbage... I think they are much more than that. Growers just might need to adapt their setups to work with the benefits of LED..
